PASADENA, California, Aug. 28 (TNSres) -- NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory issued the following news:
Stoked by Canada's warmest and driest conditions in decades, extreme forest fires in 2023 released about 640 million metric tons of carbon, NASA scientists have found. That's comparable in magnitude to the annual fossil fuel emissions of a large industrialized nation. NASA funded the study as part of its ongoing mission to understand our changing planet.The research team used satell . . .
